THESE HAVE BEEN CONFIRMED TO BE CORRECT.
Yesterday it was announced that 23 Wild cards were going to be added to Standard for a limited-time event. Apparently, those cards were given to Grandmaster's players early, which makes sense due to them likely having to play with the cards at some point on the competitive level Hearthstone has to offer.
We believe this leak to be extremely accurate due to the cards which are involved. Details were sourced from a tweet from sipiwi94, which originated from the CompetitiveHS Discord. The only confirmed cards right now are Ragnaros the Firelord and N'Zoth, the Corruptor
Just remember, none of these are official until Blizzard confirms them on October 4 and if Blizzard really wanted to, they should change their minds. The only confirmed cards right now are Ragnaros the Firelord and N'Zoth, the Corruptor. Read on for all the cards that may be a part of this event.
Leaked Neutral Cards
Leaked Druid Cards
Leaked Hunter Cards
Leaked Mage Cards
Leaked Paladin Cards
Leaked Priest Cards
Leaked Rogue Cards
Leaked Shaman Cards
Leaked Warlock Cards
Leaked Warrior Cards

I really hope, they will do something like this frequently, maybe mid-expansion or even on a monthly basis.
The more shake up the meta gets, the better.
Really love, where the game is heading. Thumps up.
Oof, Flamewaker coming back? He puts the little spitty frog to shame.
My wild rogue deck is becoming standard, love it!!!
Shadowstep N'zoth FTW
Big if true. Regardless, I'm excited for the shakeup.
Really hope that I can use my golden Renounce Darkness in Standard.
Secret paladin monkaS
Disappointed that Kazakus won't be coming. A good highlander deck for as many classes as possible would be nice.
Call of the wild with Zul"jin
not even as good as just running double Unleash the Beast. Probably still good in Highlander
Great in highlander since its a 1 of and sometimes your board state after playing Zul'jin can't do much, unless its full of 1/1 hounds or locusts.
God I hope this is false...otherwise have fun with Shamans dropping double Fleshshaper on turn 4-5, wiping your board and then evolving them both into 8-drops....on top of the Mutate shenanigans we already have.
Not to mention machine gun mage. Oh and Quest Druid now gets a 0-mana 7/7 +10 armor if they get to turn 10.
and of course Warlock would get shafted again with the memes. And Rogue just gets even more thief stuff because I guess Quest Rogue needs to work somehow. Would have preferred deathrattle support over that.
Either way, the event's not gonna last more than a month, so even if the meta gets fucked upsidedown we won't have to endure it for too long
Regarding deathrattle rogue support, Sylvanas and N'Zoth should be enough to push that again (perhaps not into the top tiers but enough to have some success). Anka, the Buried with Sylvanas and Necrium Vial looks juicy enough to me.
Think of Tempo Mage in standard right now and Secret Paladin. Gives me chills. And I don't mean the good ones!!!
Glad they added strong and fun legendaries rather than some broken ones like Kazakus and Reno Jackson, if this list turns out to be correct of course. Good stuff, Blizzard!
"Who am I?" The guy giving me PTSD!!! That's who. LOL
Also, I want to put Call of the Wild into my standard Highlander Hunter deck. Question is which card do you swap it with...? Siamat? Not likely. Dinotamer Brann? HELL NO! Zul'jin? Nope! Likely going to have to pull out a lower cost card and potentially mess up the deck's curve to make it work. Almost a third of the cards in my list are 3 drops, could remove Masked Contender as he doesn't seem to do much for me very often. I seem to pull him pretty late, often after playing Subject 9 which makes Contender a vanilla 3 mana 2/4.
RENOUNCE DARKNESS!!!!!
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES
Makes sense, especially since you see some of those also in the current solo adventures.
This is going to be amazing.
